Learn More About MCC’s Enrollment Process with Virtual Webinars

Learn more about the MCC experience during one of Admissions' virtual Parent and Families Information Sessions

Middlesex Community College understands applying to college can be an overwhelming process for prospective students and their families. Middlesex provides high-quality education that is accessible and affordable, especially during these confusing and challenging times. As a leader of online education for over 20 years, MCC is prepared to make the enrollment process an easy one using a virtual platform. The college’s Office of Admissions has created virtual Information Sessions for parents and families.

These Parent and Family Information Sessions will cover the benefits of community college and how to support the future college student on this new journey. The webinars will answer questions, help eliminate fears, and show families they are not alone in this process.

Education does not have to be put on hold because of COVID-19 and Middlesex understands that families need guidance on the college process now more than ever.

“We know that a lot of families are trying to figure out how to approach the fall semester,” said Jillian Freitas-Haley, MCC’s Assistant Dean of Admissions. “Middlesex is in a position to offer meaningful and enriching academic experiences to students, some of whom may not have previously considered community college.

“Participating in a virtual Parent and Family Information Session is a great way to learn about the wonderful things MCC and our campuses can offer your student. These events provide parents and families with a one-stop opportunity to learn about how to get started on their Middlesex journey.”
